Antonio da Correggio, The Betrayal of Christ, with a soldier in pursuit of Mark the Evangelist, c. 1522. The naked fugitive (or naked runaway or naked youth) is an unidentified figure mentioned briefly in the Gospel of Mark, immediately after the arrest of Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane and the fleeing of all his disciples:
When Jesus is arrested, a naked young man flees. [113] A young man in a robe also appears in Mark 16:5–7. Mark does not name the High Priest. [114] Witness testimony against Jesus does not agree. [115] The cock crows "twice" as predicted. [116] See also Fayyum Fragment. The other Gospels simply record, "the cock crew".

[23] [361] The first trace of this young man is found in the story of the rich man in Mark 10:17–22 whom Jesus loves and "who is a candidate for discipleship"; the second is the story of the young man in the first Secret Mark passage (after Mark 10:34) whom Jesus raises from the dead and teaches the mystery of the kingdom of God and who loves ...
